We appear to have a decent coach now tho. 👍 🤣 Who's not even had a challenge game in charge of the team yet. Let's be fair, none of us know what kind of team we're going to get next year, or how it's going to be coached, so it's ridiculous to compare the last 10 years with a year that hasn't even started to happen yet. Let's see how that quote looks in January.

Rather than attempting to bash the poster as usual,it might be more valuable if you offered an opinion as to why Panthers rarely get a player in even the top 20 scorers. I asked a perfectly reasonable question earlier in the thread. We had Jade Galbraith who was top scorer for a couple of seasons and barely won anything. Galbraith was 8th, 4th and second in league scoring in his 3 years at Panthers, during which Panthers won the playoffs once and the CC twice.

Could it be due to Corry or GM the GM - I wonder - but one of them has now left - so it may be time to give the whinging a rest and at least wait until the season starts before discounting the club - alternatively there is always other teams to support if you don't like the one we have Rather than attempting to bash the poster as usual,it might be more valuable if you offered an opinion as to why Panthers rarely get a player in even the top 20 scorers. I asked a perfectly reasonable question earlier in the thread. Don’t start playing the victim; you asked a question that was blatantly loaded to be a negative against Neilson & got called out on it.

I would never even dream of playing the victim card. If people don’t like what i post then that’s up to them. Just makes me laugh when people who have no other useful comment or alternative argument to offer resort to bashing a poster.

To come back on topic we have a 'rich' history of signing former first round draft picks, in addition to Biggs and Dylan Olsen for the upcoming season.
Curtis Bowen, Mario Larocque, Jeff Heerema, Logan MacMillan, Zach Phillips and a few of short-term signings too, Kristian Kudroc, Anthony Stewart, Daniel Tkazchuk and big Nick Boynton.
I'd describe that as a mixed bag at best, but coaches will always see the potential upside in a player and feel they can get the best out of them, let's hope we can do that this season.

I never get excited by a player on the round they get drafted in. It's a indication what the player was like when he was 18! Lots happen since then.

But if you follow the course of the sub-thread, ie Panthers not having a top points scorer since David Ling, you yourself are guilty of offering “ no other useful comment or alternative argument” as you either left it open for others to voice their opinion (once you’d asked the question) or, more likely in the case of your own regular negative remarks, it was a rhetorical question based on the recruitment of players by the previous coach.

No i just asked a simple question.... “Wonder when the last time was Panthers had the leagues top scorer” ? It’s a question for people to answer or discuss. I made absolutely no mention of Neilson or anything else,but somehow because of who posted it you have looked towards poster bashing. I later made further useful comment. Jono then later made a flippant or sarcastic comment to which I replied in kind.

All right... enough of this. Can we get back to at least one of the 'proper' subjects on this thread, please?

You then asked two questions in the same post, but never expanded upon them nor offered your own opinions: When was the last time out of the “big four” teams players that Panthers had the top scorer ? Since Ling we’ve struggled to get many players even in the top 20. Wonder why that is ? It’s quite logical, given your usual hostility towards Neilson and/or Moran, for Thebestpanthers to challenge you on your open questions but you responded by claiming you were being bashed, which you quite clearly weren’t.

Let me make it totally plain. Any more of this personal rubbish and it's out with the banhammer.
Is that plain enough for you?

I don't think anyone is suggesting your not allowed an opinion. What makes me laugh is that these opinions are based on nothing more than a stat page on elite prospects. Everything seems to think they have tis team figured out when they haven't even been on the ice yet.
